A Special Book
Last wiki revision 2023-09-13
A Special Book begins the eleventh day of Secrets of Azeroth activities.

On the balcony layer, take the exit to the southeast, jump down the stairs, and take the ramp at the southern end of the next room clockwise uphill to the north, then follow the path through the Master's Terrace and the Broken Stair to get to the Menagerie and the Curator encounter.
